EFB Chapter 30 Translation: What is a surprise?
Chapter 30 Translation: What is a surprise?
"Uncle, I just went to take a look, I didn't actually do anything." Zhang Chuman's voice was completely different from usual.
It's like a little child being affectionate with their father.
At that moment, another voice rang out.
With a hint of reproach in his voice: "You've already taken out the Spirit-Sealing Orb, and you still say you haven't made a move? What if something went wrong and you're still standing here talking to me?"
Fang Bo paused for a moment.
The voice sounds somewhat familiar.
I feel like I've heard this somewhere before.
The conversation in the living room stopped, and Zhang Chuman peeked out from the other side. She smiled at him and said, "What are you doing standing here? Come in, my uncle wants to see you."
She led the boy into the living room.
A person was sitting on the sofa.
She was wearing dark-colored loungewear, and her hair wasn't combed as neatly as before, but Fang Bo still recognized her face.
Song Mingyuan is the person in charge of the Pokémon League in Tianqiong City.
He suspected that the man in charge of the rescue operation in the eastern suburbs was the one from the high-ranking members of the Dream Eater Cult.
Fang Bo stood in the center of the living room, feeling the floor beneath his feet as cold as ice.
Many things suddenly connected at this moment.
Zhang Chuman was so familiar with the receptionist at the Elf Center.
Su Yao looked at her with a hint of ingratiation.
When he signed up for the internship assessment, Su Yao repeatedly advised him against it, but in the end, he still had to consider Zhang Chuman's feelings before stamping the form.
All of this demonstrates the unusual nature of her identity.
Fang Bo didn't pay much attention to this issue.
As a result, he received a surprise today.
Fang Bo was inwardly shaken, but outwardly remained calm.
He forced himself to keep his expression steady, making sure the other person didn't notice anything amiss.
"Hello, Uncle Song." He greeted him.
The sound was calmer than expected.
Having gone through so much, Fang Bo matured quickly and was no longer the boy who only knew how to play games.
Song Mingyuan looked at him, a gentle smile appearing on his lips: "How are you? Are you settling in well here?"
Fang Bo nodded, looking like a cautious child.
It fits his current status very well.
"That's good." Song Mingyuan leaned back on the sofa and glanced at Zhang Chuman. "This child has a quick temper, but she's not a bad person. If you're not satisfied with the accommodations at school, you're welcome to come back anytime. This is your home."
Fang Bo smiled shyly: "Thank you, Uncle Song."
Zhang Chuman patted him on the shoulder: "Alright, go to sleep, you've been up all night."
"Um."
Fang Bo turned and walked into the corridor.
His steps were steady, showing no sign of anything unusual.
Only after entering the room and closing the door did he collapse to the ground, feeling utterly exhausted.
The green-feathered snake in his arms sensed the situation and reached out its little hand to comfort him, but its arm was too short, so it could only gently stroke his cheek with its vine whip.
It could clearly feel the trainer's body trembling.
"I'm fine." After placing the little one on the table, Fang Bo climbed into bed and covered his face with the blanket.
A moment later, Fang Bo suddenly sat up: "What am I afraid of? The academy's assessment is in two days. From now on, I'll say goodbye to all this nonsense."
Having figured this out, he finally relaxed and soon fell asleep.
......
For the next two days, Fang Bo continued to take good care of the two elves.
The Green-feathered Snake cannot be contracted at the moment and can only be kept by one's side in a free-range manner.
The little guy will follow him as long as he appears in his sight.
The dependence on Fangbo has exceeded the normal range.
This indicates that it has an extreme lack of security.
This condition can only be healed slowly over time.
In addition, the little guy is also very jealous.
Seeing Fang Bo apply the sharpening agent to Kha'Zix, it squatted down beside him and stared intently.
After watching for a while, it started to rub against Fang Bo's hand.
Pretend to casually push the large praying mantis away.
Kha'Zix would quietly change positions each time.
It's just like a brother dealing with a naughty younger sister.
Fang Bo had no choice but to apply sand to Kha'Zix with one hand and hold the Azure Serpent with the other.
At these times, the little guy would squint his eyes happily, clearly enjoying the feeling of being in his arms.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Chuman laughed and said, "You've raised a daughter."
Fang Bo thought about it and it didn't seem wrong.
Kha'Zix is a combat partner; the two are brothers who survived together in the ruins.
The Green-feathered Snake is different.
It is the one that needs to be taken care of.
Before going to sleep at night, make sure it's nestled next to your pillow before closing your eyes.
Watching the little guy curl his finger with its tail, Fang Bo suddenly realized that he hadn't named it yet.
"Green snake?"
"No, it's too deserted, it doesn't suit its cute appearance."
Suddenly, he thought of a movie with the same name, The Legend of the White Snake.
When it comes to naming a child, there has to be some kind of story behind it. He can't come up with poetic or artistic ideas, but he's definitely got the nostalgia factor to the max.
From now on, I'll call you Xiaoqing.
The Green-feathered Serpent raised its head, gazing at him with an alluring look.
Fang Bo called out again, and the tip of the Green Feathered Snake's tail curved slightly.
Now I understand why that's its name.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and the day of enrollment finally arrived.
Zhang Chuman got up early in the morning to prepare breakfast for him personally, while Song Mingyuan had not appeared since that day.
It seems the Pokémon Center is indeed very busy.
I spend most of my time sleeping at work.
"Eat quickly, we can't be late today." Zhang Chuman shoveled rice into her mouth one bite at a time.
After breakfast, he greeted Xiaoqing, who was hiding in the room.
He wanted to leave it at home, but Xiaoqing, who lacked a sense of security, clung to him and wouldn't get down.
Left with no other choice, Fang Bo had to take the little guy with him when he went out.
This made Xiaoqing hum happily.
"You really spoil it." With that, the two of them got into the car and headed to the academy.
Soon, Fang Bo saw this world-renowned school.
The gate of Tianqiong Academy is an archway, with stone pillars on both sides converging at the top to form an arc.
It is about 20 meters high and wide enough for four school buses to pass side by side.
The surface of the stone pillar is covered with names.
These are the names left by trainers throughout the school's history since its founding.
This is an honor, and it is also the school's expectation for every child.
Three statues stand on either side of the school gate.
The first figure is a man kneeling on one knee, his palm resting on the head of a wolf-shaped spirit.
It symbolizes "trust".
The second figure depicts a woman raising a shield, with a turtle-shaped spirit standing behind her.
It symbolizes "protection".
The third figure is a boy and a bird-shaped spirit leaping up at the same time.
It symbolizes "walking together".
These are the three cornerstones erected when Tianqiong College was founded.
It can be understood as a unique school motto.
Zhang Chuman stood under the arcade, looking up for a while: "I was also stunned when I first came here."
After saying that, she turned to look at the junior student: "Alright, my task is complete now that I've brought you here."
She waved to Fang Bo, then turned and merged into the bustling crowd.
It disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"That's really not fair," Fang Bo said helplessly, preparing to go to the freshman reception area to register himself.
Suddenly, someone tapped him on the shoulder from behind.
